Difficult interview

I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Jackson, MS) in Jul 2013

Interview

I had a phone call for initial screening, then an hour and half interview with the current assistant and the office manager. Then I was called to another 2 hour interview with the current assistant and the financial planner that I would be working for. It was way too long to answer the questions that I had.
